Chimes are large-scale percussion instruments in ancient China, which arose in the Western Zhou Dynasty and flourished in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period until the Qin and Han dynasties.

It is made of bronze and consists of oblate round bells of different sizes arranged in the order of pitch, hanging on a huge bell stand, and striking the bronze bells with a T-shaped wooden hammer and a long rod respectively, which can produce different musical sounds, because each bell has a different tone, and can play a beautiful piece of music by striking according to the musical notation.

In 1957, the first complete set of 13 chimes was unearthed at the site of Chengyang City, Xinyang, South of China, and the Dongfang Red music played with it sang into space with China's first artificial satellite.

At first, the chimes were composed of 3 large and small bells, and by this time in the Han Dynasty, the most were 13 chimes.

The greater the quantity, the more difficult it is to play, but the higher the quality of the music, and the more it reflects the ability of the performer.

When Liu Bei took the small hammer and small stick handed over by the attendant.

Whether it is fierce generals like Tai Shici and Jiang Qin, or great sages like Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu, all eyes are on Liu Bei.

What kind of music does Liu Bei play?

Speaking of which, including Yuan Tan, everyone will wait and see.

After Liu Bei took the small hammer and small stick, he knocked the chimes one by one and tried the timbre.

"The quality of this set of chimes is really good." Liu Bei couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhang Zhao also said: "Uncle Huang, for your assessment, this is what the Metropolitan Governor took from his own family. ”

Qu Oily Zhou Lang Gu is not a joke.

It turned out to be the Metropolitan Governor's family, no wonder it was so good.

But most of the governor's music is also on the guqin, and listening to Liu Bei's audition just now, you know that he has a high attainment in chimes.

"Then Uncle Liu, can you start?" Zhou Yu asked lightly.

Liu Bei nodded.

"What kind of tune does Uncle Liu Huang use?" Zhang Zhao asked.

"We'll find out later." Liu Bei said with a smile.

It seems that Liu Bei is going to sell a pass.

Everyone looked at each other, then you sell it, whether you pretend to be forced or not, we will listen to how your bell rings.

In the back hall, Sun Shangxiang was more anxious.

Outside, Yuan Tan looked at Liu Bei, who had already floated, and his heart was also up and down.

Suddenly.

Liu Bei played, tossing and turning, beating the chimes of all directions, which was more passionate than playing a set of drums.

Not to mention, the prelude of Liu Bei's music is very light and pleasant, which is fundamentally different from the music of this era, giving people a bright feeling.

Zhang Zhao couldn't help touching his beard and said: "Listen to this prelude and know that it is a good song, I didn't expect Uncle Liu Huang to have such talent, what about the metropolitan governor?" ”

"It's innovative." Zhou Yu also had to be impressed.

Yuan Tan's eyes were already wide at the moment, he was very familiar with this rhythm, and his heart and gall were suddenly broken, he couldn't tell that tune, right?

At this time, Liu Bei, who rang the bell, sang:

"The first thing I say when I get up every day is to vent myself. I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't think about it, I can't think about it! ”

"In order to become a big belly, I don't go horseback riding every day!"

"I'm going to become a 10,000-strong enemy, I'm going to be a heartthrob!"

Liu Bei shook his head and shook his tail, he needed to ring the bell, so if he turned his back to everyone, these actions were even more reverie.

it!

Liu Bei was stunned, how could I sing like this? That's not my word.

Zhou Yu, they are even more blinded, what is this? Sounds good, but I'm so tired of it?

Uncle Liu, you are fifty years old, you old horseman still want to be a heartthrob!

You're so idealistic!

He still has to be an enemy of 10,000 people, he doesn't ride a horse every day, and he has a woolen yarn for 10,000 people!

Zhou Yu and the others suddenly became disgusted.

Although this piece is good, it does not conform to the current code of conduct of a gentleman.

Yuan Tan was also dumbfounded, "Liu Bei, there are a lot of ringworms!" You are simply too showy, the show of Tinhua is not as good as you, you are a heavenly show! ”

"Is this still a great prophecy, this is simply a crow's mouth!"

"But my crow's mouth is still such a crow, why are I still so happy in my heart?"

Yuan Tanle blossomed.

What does it mean to be happy?

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu glanced at each other, it seems that Liu Bei also has ambitions for Xichuan, but you sing it so bluntly, is it really good? Are you provoking?

Liu Bei stopped playing, turned around, and saw that everyone was stunned, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Xu Shu grabbed his hair violently, lord, are you stupid, are you stupid?

Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei with admiration, big brother, you are floating. You're singing this barren, but I have to say it's pretty good.

At this moment, Liu Bei's liver was broken, and he was shaky, but he was even more blindfolded: "Why am I singing like this? Am I suffering from severe schizophrenia disorder? ”

"I didn't prepare it, the next one is!" Liu Bei hurriedly changed a tune.

Less.

After a song, everyone was very shocked, and it must be said that Liu Bei's song "Yangchun White Snow" is also a must when played alone with chimes.

But everyone looked at each other, and it was pointed out by Qianfu, so why did Liu Bei play such a tune before?

Trick us?

An angry Zhang Zhao was the first to hold up a sign with two big words written on it, 'Failure'.

Cheng Pu and Sun Jing also mercilessly raised the sign of failure, and Lu Su saw that everyone raised it, and he also raised it

Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and lifted it up.

Liu Bei's face suddenly turned even paler.

Seeing this, everyone pondered for a while, what was the fun of deflating before, it may be that Uncle Liu Huang floated and wanted to make waves, but he didn't make waves.

After all, who doesn't want to wave it?

Speaking of Uncle Huang's song, it's still very good to look back on at the moment, but it's just not a scene.

For Liu Bei to sing such a modern song, Yuan Tanle just wanted to roll, couldn't help but walked over, held Liu Bei's hand, and said: "Uncle Huang's music is really ahead of its time, it's just that they won't appreciate it." ”

Liu Bei's expression was more uncomfortable than crying, what's wrong with him, is he really split?

How else can this matter be explained, for Liu Bei, it can only be explained like this.

With the cheers of the maids coming from the back hall, Liu Bei's face became even paler.

"Ahem......." Wu Guotai coughed, pulled his face and said, "Let's move on to the next item." ”

Inevitably, Liu Bei was even more embarrassed, and everyone stopped mentioning this matter.

The next subject, the fourth, is archery.

Ten minutes later.

The crowd rode horses or carriages to the school military yard outside the city.

How many people stood on the side of the street to watch Liu Bei and his party, and Yuan Tan was of course among them.

A child sang a song: "The first sentence when you get up every day, first deflate yourself, I can't do it, I can't do it!" ”

The child's father was furious and scolded, "What are you singing? The future of the family depends on you, do you get up and deflate first? You unfilial rebel! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he staggered, and it seemed that he was finished.

"Dad, I didn't sing it, it was Uncle Liu Huang who sang it, a big brother taught it to me just now, I just learned it."

Yes!

The people were shocked.

Uncle Liu Huang is such a bullish character, he actually got up to vent himself first, I can't think of it, I can't think of it. It's no wonder that Uncle Liu Huang has been fighting horses for half his life, and he has never really won once, and he has been beaten from the north to the south of the Yangtze River.

"You can't learn what Uncle Liu Huang sings, Uncle Liu Huang has a mine at home, and people have the capital to be deflated, do you have it?" The child's father reprimanded.

"Yes!" The child said aggrievedly, "It looks like we still need to have a mine first, and then discourage...... ”

After hearing the child's words, the adults burst into thunderous applause, child, you finally realized.

Liu Bei smoked instead.

Xu Shu saw that Liu Bei's face was pale, and encouraged: "Lord, don't think about the previous one, you must take the archery." ”

He saw that Liu Bei was confused, and he howled in his big ears, "If you win archery, you will win half of it, and you will be invincible!" Do you understand? ”

"Good! Don't worry, I'll be able to shoot an archery. Liu Bei clenched his fists and said

"Uh-huh......." Xu Shu pulled his neckline, venting his unbearable anger, he still believed Liu Bei.

"The song from before ......." Liu Bei wanted to explain, so as not to chill the heart of the military advisor.

"Lord, there is no need to talk about the previous things." Xu Shu said, "I can understand." "Lord, you floated and wanted to make waves, but it's a pity that your innovation, as the representative of Sun Shangxiang said, no one will appreciate it.

Liu Bei saw that the military advisor understood him so well, and he wanted to win back a city in archery. As the military advisor said, if you win archery, you will be invincible.
